I met Pokey about 5 years ago when he was wearing a pin stripe suit. Must have been all of 5’5″ tall 120 lbs soaking wet with sweat. Nobody was too interested in his music at little blues bar, even tho spossedly a retro crowd. Cupl weeks after he signed the only Cd he sold that night, he’s on Letterman. I grew up watching Leon Redbone and Steve Martin on SNL. Maybe this is what pre-Dixieland sounded like in bars and on steamboats? The greatgrandmother of rock’n’roll that was birthed from Storytown NOLA…
Gotta love the instrumentation.

These are comments from user Lord_Nougat:
“Holy shit, this is fantastic! BRILLIANT shit!
I especially appreciate his adherence to firm, wearing a full wool suit where everyone else is tragically in shorts and tshirts!”
Pfft! I see this comment now. (I’m not sure how I missed it sooner.)
Next time, if you’d like, just tell @Lord_Nougat that, “TheBuddha said get off your lazy ass and post it yourself!” Then throw in an insult about boats. If he argues, throw in another boat insult – and maybe insult his sexuality. He drinks but I’m pretty sure he can figure out how to leave his own comment. Pretty sure! I’ll yell at him. I ain’t scared.
